### Dimension Color Key Object

The Dimension Color Key object is used to drop a color key directly into the template. This color key depicts the colors that are used to represent the dimensional tolerance zones for analysis and histogram objects.

To see how these tolerance zones are defined or to change the colors representing each tolerance zone, see "Editing Dimension Colors" in the "Editing the CAD Display" chapter. Note that the Decimal Places value discussed in that topic does not affect the decimal places in the Dimension Color Key object here. That value only applies to the color bar in the Graphic Display window. The decimal places for the Dimension Color Key object is hard coded to three decimal places.
